Dear Glenn´s family,
I reminisce Glenn coming down the sidewalk with a smile on his face, walking on stilts! All the good memories playing croquet in the Lanes back yard. I know God will be smiling upon his arrival as he always lit up any room! Ps we were always mischievous, we would smoke corncob pipes with coffee grounds. Mary Lou and Melvin laughed at us being so silly

God bless Glen´s family. In childhood and our younger years, we knew each other in school and church/Broadway Presbyterian. He was a kind and caring person. I respected his parents and brother. They were a great family. I always considered him as a friend!
